What did you mean by "dba_directories records shows that i got emp_dir i just created, but i can't see it in my F: drive" .. you gotta create that directory yourself ... go to F drive and create a physical folder with that name

Good. It worked. However, if i'm a remote user and i have been granted create directory privilege, how can i manage creating the folder and file manually! I might not have access to the PC or Unix Server Drive to create the directory by myself. Any idea?

That would mean you are not a DBA, create directory priv was granted in error to you and, you should ask a DBA for help.
